OsNRT1.1A overexpression accelerated flowering. Field tests of OsNRT1.1A-overexpressing rice plants (OEnp-4) and wild-type plants (WT) in the field at flowering stage (left) and grain-filling stage (center), showing early flowering. Panicles of the overexpressing and wild-type plants (right). Bars = 50 cm (left and center) and 8 cm (right). (Reprinted from Wang et al. [2018], Figure 9.)
